Manhattan Clam Chowder- is that the red or the white?

On Thursday I made the Slow-Cook Manhattan Clam Chowder (which is the red) because I was going to be at work all day and wanted Jack to have a home-cooked meal. If I had the choice between the New England or the Manhattan version of clam chowder, I would always go with the New England. However, since NE is made with cream, the Manhattan would be more suitable for weight watchers. You can find this recipe on page 142, along with other slow-cook recipes. I have to admit that I liked it, and I liked the low points value (2 points for 1.5 cups) even better! The chowder called for some smoked bacon, which I found odd because turkey bacon HAS to be less fattening. The smoked bacon is probably necessary for flavor. The rest of the ingredients are all vegetables, chopped clams and clam juice. No broth necessary. Yummy! This guy gets a smiley face and a thumbs up.
